corpse
n.
dead body
Cadaver
A cadaver or corpse is a dead
human body. Normally used as a more formal name for bodies being used in medicine/doctor training, in university courses, for example. In the context of human remains the transition into cadaver from living tissue is a complex chemical process with many states. While often cadavers remain contained they can at time be the subject of scavenging. This scavaging process results in a large site requiring forensic anthropologists and possibly cadaver dogs.
